  • v0.4.4 Changes

    July 07, 2020
    • 🛠 Fix symbol lookup with namespaces. ([@palkan][])

    🛠 Fixes #122.

    • Separated #classify-based and #camelize-based symbol lookups. ([@Be-ngt-oH][])

    🚅 Only affects Rails apps. Now lookup for :users tries to find UsersPolicy first (camelize), and only then search for UserPolicy (classify).

    👀 See PR#118.

    • 🛠 Fix calling rules with allowed_to? directly. ([@palkan][])

    Fixes #113

  • v0.4.3 Changes

    December 14, 2019
    • Add #cache(*parts, **options) { ... } method. ([@palkan][])

    👍 Allows you to cache anything in policy classes using the Action Policy cache key generation mechanism.

    • 🚅 Handle versioned Rails cache keys. ([@palkan][])

    Use #cache_with_version as a cache key if defined.

  • v0.4.2 Changes

    December 13, 2019
    • 🛠 Fix regression introduced in 0.4.0 which broke testing Class targets. ([@palkan][])

  • v0.4.1

    December 13, 2019

  • v0.4.0 Changes

    December 11, 2019

    🔋 Features

    • Optional authorization context. (#95)

    In addition to allow_nil: true, we now have an option to skip the context altogether:

    class OptionalRolePolicy \< ActionPolicy::Baseauthorize :role, optional: trueendpolicy = OptionalRolePolicy.newpolicy.role #=\> nil
    • 🚅 Rails generators. (#87)

    Now you can use action_policy:install and action_policy:policy MODEL Rails generators.

    • 🆕 New instrumentation event: action_policy.init.

    Triggered every time a new policy object is initialized.

    🔄 Changes

    • ✅ Composed matchers are supported in authorization target testing.

    ✅ Now you can write tests like this:

    expect { subject }.to be\_authorized\_to(:show?, an\_instance\_of(User))

  • v0.3.4 Changes

    November 27, 2019
    • 🛠 Fix Rails generators. ([@palkan][])

    Only invoke install generator if application_policy.rb is missing. 🛠 Fix hooking into test frameworks.

  • v0.3.3 Changes

    November 27, 2019
    • 👌 Improve pretty print functionality. ([@palkan][])

    Colorize true/false values. 🖐 Handle multiline expressions and debug statements (i.e., binding.pry).

    • ➕ Add Rails generators. ([@nicolas-brousse][])

    Adds action_policy:install and action_policy:policy MODEL Rails generators.

    • Optional authorization target. ([@somenugget][])

    👍 Allows making authorization context optional:

    class OptionalRolePolicy < ActionPolicy::Base
  authorize :role, optional: true

    🛠 Fixes #70.

  • v0.3.0 Changes

    April 02, 2019
    • ➕ Added ActiveSupport-based instrumentation. ([@palkan][])

    👀 See PR#4

    • 👍 Allow passing authorization context explicitly. ([@palkan][])

    Closes #3.

    Now it's possible to override implicit authorization context via context option:

    authorize! target, to: :show?, context: {user: another_user}
authorized_scope User.all, context: {user: another_user}
    • 📇 Renamed #authorized to #authorized_scope. ([@palkan][])

    NOTE: #authorized alias is also available.

    • ➕ Added Policy#pp(rule) method to print annotated rule source code. ([@palkan][])

    Example (debugging):

    def edit?
  binding.pry # rubocop:disable Lint/Debugger
  (user.name == "John") && (admin? || access_feed?)
end

    pry> pp :edit?
MyPolicy#edit?
↳ (
    user.name == "John" #=> false
  )
  AND
  (
    admin? #=> false
    OR
    access_feed? #=> true
  )
)

    👀 See PR#63

    • ➕ Added ability to provide additional failure reasons details. ([@palkan][])

    Example:

    class ApplicantPolicy < ApplicationPolicy
  def show?
    allowed_to?(:show?, object.stage)
  end
end

class StagePolicy < ApplicationPolicy
  def show?
    # Add stage title to the failure reason (if any)
    # (could be used by client to show more descriptive message)
    details[:title] = record.title
    # then perform the checks
    user.stages.where(id: record.id).exists?
  end
end
